101713/WENT GROCERY SHOPPING TODAY,
i never look at prices because i just dont care. so today i looked at
the price of bread. a simple loaf of honey whole wheat bread for my
kid's pb&j. its 4.29 per friggin loaf. (w)(t)(f) is that all
about? soon we will be paying $60 bucks for a loaf while fighting in
the streets for the single salami hanging in the butcher store
window-yc/McCain and Romney would have done better? With a Republican
Pres, the housing marker would still be tanking, Banks going out of
business, the poor and middle class would still be paying the taxes
to save the Job Creators, please spare me, I'll take
my chances with the current Pres. And if Congress would get on board
and quit farting around this country might be heading into the right
direction-Far right extremists take losing SOOOOOO badly! Their pain,
reminds me of election night when the cry-baby fools on the far right
exploded with outrage when Obama was re-elected. That was a great
night. This night pales to that one, but the far right has been
exposed for what they are: mindless, hate mongering, inept, extremist
jackasses and FOOLS! And, the GOP in general is STILL a frothing mess
of waste and incompetence-the Republican's would never pass any
healthcare reform that tries to level the playing field and cover all
citizens. They loved throwing you off or jacking your rates so high
you or your employer could not afford coverage once you came down
with a serious illness. They loved cherry picking only the healthy
and excluding preexisting conditions. These two facts help fatten
the plutocrat's wallets for years!-liberals just don't understand how
the economy works. The government or any big monopoly doesn't work
well. Competition and Freedom produce the best quality for the lowest
cost. Its called a free market and the government should stay out of
it except where clear law breaking results. Too bad the government
gave up just being the referee long long ago now the government is
not only the referee they pick the players, the teams and who even
gets to participate-ybac/Have U Pus Gut, Racist, White Trash Ended

yhal/Steve Jensen discovered the North Dakota oil spill the size of
seven football fields while harvesting wheat Sept. 29. Tesoro Corp.
first estimated the spill at its underground pipeline near Tioga at
750 barrels. About a week later, the San Antonio, Texas based company
increased the estimate to 20,600 barrels, or some 865,000 gallons,
making it one of the largest spills in North Dakota history, the
release of oil has been stopped and the 7.3-acre spill area has been
contained-010 that an oil spill from ExxonMobil operations was
nothing new to the country. He wrote that an "environmental
catastrophe [had] been going on since December 2009." He
described the toll on Nigeria: "There's oil on the surface of
the ocean, wildlife coated in crude, fishermen losing their
businesses,2011, the Nigerian government said there had been more
than 7,000 oil spills in the country between 1970 and 2000 that could
take up to 30 years and $1 billion to clean up-2010, an Enbridge
pipeline in southwestern Michigan sprung a leak and spilled over
800,000 gallons of oil into a creek which flows into the Kalamazoo
River, the agency cautioned that it will take months to complete the
cleanup, the end of September, the pipeline travels from Ontario to
Indiana, was back in operation, EPA later reported that about 1.1
million gallons of oil were recovered, but pipeline operator Enbridge
said that it would stick with previous estimates that only about
843,000 gallons were spilled. hp/

from the media, the next election isn't in 2016 or 2014. In Virginia,
it's just 22 days away, and there's a lot on the line, Terry
McAuliffe is running for governor, vs Ken Cuccinelli the first
person in the United States to sue the federal government to overturn
the Affordable Care Act and took legal action against one of the
country's best universities (which happened to be his OWN client)
because he disagreed with a study on climate change research. He's
one of those people who still doesn't believe in global warming. a
small group of Republicans backed by very wealthy special interest
groups can do. They're making it harder for poor folks to vote in
Texas. They're trying to nullify federal laws they don't agree with
in Mississippi. And they've forced an unnecessary and damaging
government shutdown, Many of the same people working to undermine aca
are spending millions trying to prop up Cuccinelli's campaign

We handed our foreign passports expecting the worst, but the soldiers
said “Go, just go…” So we got through without an issue. What
have I learned from visiting Ramallah? That Ramallah is a very nice,
upscale place, and there are lots of secular Muslims who drink
alcohol. As an added bonus, I got to experience first-hand the
“Palestinian” propaganda machine. If there is one thing the Arabs
are good at, it’s marketing. However, my overall impression of
Ramallah was so positive, that if I were not Jewish, I would
certainly move there, a couple of British girls who were living in
Ramallah and volunteering for the “Palestinian cause”. I made the
mistake of treading into politics with one of the girls, which caused
her to go into a rabid antiSemitic rant at one point. It’s amazing
to me how brainwashed these people are. I can understand the Arabs
much more than these Europeans who come to live in Ramallah to help
the Palestinians, and then lament that Ramallah has gotten so nice
that its not “real Palestine” anymore (whatever that means), but
at the same time they don’t want to move out of Ramallah…confused

Russian Embassy in The Hague Dmitry Borodin who has diplomatic
immunity. They reported that the neighbors allegedly sent a report
about child abuse that took place in the apartment. Although Borodin
told the intruders about his diplomatic status, they knocked him to
the floor in front of his children, handcuffed him and hit him on the
head with a baton, his microblog men in uniform took him along with
his children to the station where they spent three hours. He was
rescued by a diplomat of the Russian Embassy. There was no apology or
explanation-bocare is a law approved by none other than the Supreme
Court so tea party will have to accept it-peeps lied to make it
legal. Or they lied to the people to get it passed. Either way, Obama

black hero can say this with a straight face, As was intended by the
Founders of our nation, a power structure was put in place with “the
people” at the pinnacle of that power pyramid. In order for them to
properly exercise their power, it was important that the citizenry be
well informed and educated. Proverbs 14:15-(New Living Translation)
says, “Only simpletons believe everything they’re told! The
prudent carefully consider their steps-On paper, the corporation
exists to provide services to customers. In practice it exists to
provide wealth to its boards, its suppliers and its employees. It is
a non profit, in the worst sense of the word, because its finances
are unsustainable, it keeps going only by compulsively lying to
everyone it owes money to, promising debtors that they will be repaid
and customers that they will be served, while its insiders stuff
their pockets full of stolen money, a familiar form of corruption
being practiced on a truly epic scale, Conflict of interest is
completely natural. It is human nature for people to look after
themselves and their friends first. It is also completely natural for
a system to serve itself and to build its governance mechanisms in
such a way that everyone on the inside gets paid and almost everyone
on the outside gets screwed. It's all natural, but so is murdering
your neighbor for his camels and his wife. Governments are set up to
restrain the sort of natural abuses that flow out of human nature.
The American variety of it was an experiment that tossed out a
ridiculously corrupt system dependent on access and birth, and
replaced it with one that depended as little on government as
possible. It was still corrupt from the first, because it was still
human, but it was much less corrupt than all the other alternative
systems to it because everyone had limited veto power over it and
unlimited immunity from it in many areas. Since then we have gone
from a system that limited its own power to a system whose ideologues
cry for unlimited power and spin us the wonders of universal college
education and green energy that they will produce for us if only we
let them do whatever the hell they want. But at least it's not one of
those horrible big corporations. Then we might actually have a choice
whether to do business with it or not. Sultan Knish-monthly premium

It has been a consistent agenda of upward wealth redistribution,
supported by the middle class. Or maybe they just didn't notice until
enough of the middle class became the poor, not a "new poor,"
but just a part of the poor, subject to all the contempt, and all the
blocked off opportunities, of all the other poor. Unlike previous
generations, we forgot that the policies we impose on the poor
directly impact the middle class. I read that 80% of middle classes
support mandatory (super cheap) workfare replacement labor, for
example. Think they'll ever figure out whom workfare labor replaces
(albeit at a fraction of the wages)? The bottom line is that there is
